The larger, four-engine sister to the DP-5. This model has its wings lowered closer to the ground, as well as a longer fuselage. Most QP-4s were used as passenger aircraft, though many were converted into bombers and tankers for war efforts.

@JLaerospace that would probably be a much better solution yeah, the reason why it's so heavy is because the nose is weighted (with tinker panel) so it wouldn't tip backwards when turning the engines on, the DP-5 had the same issue. I'll try to modify it here in a bit and upload it again

@BeaconIndustries I mean it just needs higher speeds to handle, it doesn't make this beautiful creation less enjoyable. I'll share a way to reduce weight in-game though, without hurting range or the tinker panel. This would be using jet fuel (or another propellant) and a fuel cell to convert it into electricity, instead of storing everything in a huge and heavy battery, as the energy density of fuel is higher than a battery. Another bonus is that fuel cells sound like prop engines ;)

@JLaerospace it's AN early Passenger Planes I Guess It doesn't have best controls XD maybe if Christine56 makes a single engine plane or a lighter framed big One It Will handle way better

Looking great! Controls are a bit heavy, as the plane is slightly overweight. Will you try making custom landing gear with hinge rotators sometime also?
@JLaerospace good point
